While in China my husband bought me a new ring - a white gold ring with two stones called Lavender Chalcedony. I tend to wear lots of purple coloured clothes, so it works well for me. I'm having trouble taking a photo of it - so will keep trying, but it has two square stones with three small diamonds between them.

Have you heard of Yaro Starak?
I have been a subscriber to Yaro Starak's newsletters for some time. I guess I don't really want to be a "professional blogger" in the way that he describes, but I love reading his articles and I do use some of the tips. I know that to be a professional blogger one needs to work at it full time plus and I am not ready to do that yet.
Links - in and out.
I mentioned before that a good post needs a few links in it. But we must remember that if we blog on other sites, we need to have a few links there to some posts in BlogEvolve. Links IN are important too.
Umbrella City
China does things on a GRAND scale. Everyone who has seen vision of the Olympic venues, and the footage of great places around China would have to agree.
Almost everyone who speaks with me about China asks about the pollution. It is real. It is frightening. You can see (and sometimes feel) the air clogged with dust and other pollutants. The numbers of people reported to die each ear from pollution related diseases is high! Perhaps there are more that go unreported too.
